Sheesh. This web page is really old.
You can set words not in dictionary appear in outline style (you can
then add them to the dictionary by invoking the menu by tapping the
word twice and then by pressing the dict icon or give them their
plain style by tapping the crossed dict icon).
Anyway. It does it and it does work if you use the printing
recognizer. If you use Paragraph, it may or may not freeze your
Newton after the second or third (or fourth) word you write. It's a
well known bug I haven't found the time to fix because it's very
close to the bottom of my to-do list, under the sleep more line.
